What the frick happened to indie games in general? it went from being unique during the brown and bloom era to straight up badly copied clones of notable IPs
Where did all the effort go?
>it went from being unique during the brown and bloom era
geometry wars was just a clone of smash tv
castle crashers was just a clone of any beat em up
skullgirls was just a clone of marvel vs capcom 2
etc
>castle crashers was just a clone of any beat em up
that is so fricking dumb to the point you'd call COD games "Doomlikes"
yes, but if I posted any 3d platformer you'd call it a mario 64 clone. if I posted any platform fighter you'd call it a smash bros clone. if I posted any RPG you'd call it an earthbound clone.
name one game from that era that is better than pizza tower or ultrakill
>Pizza tower
play any snes game it will be better
>ultra kill
ultra homosexual go play quake
How about you actually answer his question?
Ballz(snes) is not better than pizzatower so frick off, and Quake although having aged pretty well and having nice looking environments us glacially slow and simple compared to the gameplay of Ultrakill. Wrong on both counts.
>play any snes game it will be better
Nah you're just blinded by nostalgia. Half of this indie trash is comparable to what you thought was good back then. I don't know why you think there was some special magic to playing retro games, indie games are equally as shitty as everything put out back in the 80s and 90s
>comparable to what you thought was good back then
you're a delusional moron
>wrong on both counts
lol
>you're a delusional moron
No you're the one who is delusional. These old games belong in the trash and you celebrating them is as bad as supporting these hack indie devs.
>no u
anyone who uses the phrase "blinded by nostalgia" is automatically disqualified from saying anything and thinking they have anything meaningful to say
no old shows weren't bad because you cannot handle 30 seconds without something happening or having to time a jump
It's true because you can't explain what the originals do any better. They're about equally comparable and simplistic. It doesn't matter if one came first and did it, the point is that the time it came from was when game development was primitive.
>"it's true"
no it isn't
your indie shit was made with easy mode tools and is uninspired garbage
go have a nice day
>your indie shit was made with easy mode tools
Who fricking cares, they do play the same and they're all shit is the point. Your favorite retro games sucked and so do these new iterations of them from the indie scene.
name one snes game that is better
Indie games have always been copies of classic notable IPs.
>make decent art assets
>deep fry them
>cheap dithering filter
>ship it
hurts my fricking eyes
Yeah that's what happens when you let actual morons make games.
Do they even enforce strict palletization anymore?
The reason Doom and all the rest of the DOS brown shadow games look like that is because they were emulating shading in the confines of a fixed color pallete. In practise you only had 8-16 unique colors for your assets and the rest had to be dedicated ramps for the lighting, which of course is completely alien to modern shading where you can do whatever you want whenever you want.
Looks like BLOOD (1996)
>retro
did he claim it was supposed to be retro?
if it's not retro then it's just ugly on purpose
Finland is really that ugly.
Is that Cultic? I think it looks …fun
It's really fun but a bit too easy and the bigger enemies have some terrible AI
I assume they are really young devs who have this warped idea of what retro graphics are.
I don't really like going fast. Apparently I'm supposed to fly through these boomer shooters as quickly as possible but I literally run up to walls and pop out back and forth to fire.
Cultic was pretty enjoyable regardless.
you can turn off that color effect, i don't know why autists like that effect so much.
Must be the vanilla og Doom fans
>i don't know why autists like that effect so much.
Because it looks similar to Blood i guess is the aesthetic it's going for.
